Mark Monday, January 16 on your calendar. East Jordan Board of Ed will meet and you need to be there. They have not settled a contract and are still asking for ridiculous terms compared to what other area schools are getting. How would you like a pay freeze AND a 5% cut in pay. On top of that, you would take a cap on your insurance. That means the board would only pay up to a certain amount for monthly premiums and if you wanted better insurance, you would pay the difference. On top of that, the district has been giving up $28,000 per month in savings since July because they refuse to accept concessions offered by the East Jordan teachers. This is not about money ( 8% fund equity in the district). This is about sticking it to teachers and anti-union sentiment from the board.
Show your support and attend the meeting Monday, January 16 @ 5:30pm in the H.S. Auditorium. You owe it to your friends and colleagues in East Jordan.
